Not sure what is trying to be said here. Often they are actually very Homogenous with the Drive train following into just a couple companies Samsung, LG, Tesla, and MM. Even beyond that within OEMs that vehicles differences come down to Coachwork.The EVs may be similar to regular cars, but that doesn’t mean they’re homogenous. Certain parts and usage vary, including the most apparent: the need to charge. However, even with such variations, you don’t need to have a specific driver’s license for driving an electric car.

I just wanted to say that these cars are pretty similar...I don't know much about it, so I think you're right, thanks for correcting me.Not sure what is trying to be said here.

I wasn't correcting, I was trying to clarify.I just wanted to say that these cars are pretty similar...I don't know much about it, so I think you're right, thanks for correcting me.
That's cool...It's interesting to listen to you, thanksI wasn't correcting, I was trying to clarify.
My issue with the Coachwork model that is clearly being embraced by former PSA management is while it generates a lot of scale savings it does not allow well for different Missions. Example is the Latest eCMP while Peugeot, Fiat, Opel, Vauxhall, Citroen, DS, Lacia all have similar mission down to appointment and Style, when suddenly you throw in Jeep, Alfa Romeo.... and even Maserati and Dodge on other future platforms. All of sudden you are including cars with missions beyond Coachwork and beyond programing. You are including vehicles that need geometry difference to properly perform their mission. Coachwork simply isn't enough.
I get the word play, but the next generation of electric vehicles should drive themselves.
